BCO2041 Systems Analysis and Design Assignment 1: System Proposal

This is a group assignment. You will work in a group with a maximum of three (3) people and a minimum of two (2) people. You will retain the same group for the second Assignment for which the deliverable is the Systems Design Document.

As soon as you receive this assignment you should choose the members of your project team. If you are unable to form a project team by the end of the second tutorial, then you will be assigned to a team by your tutor. Your team needs to start this early. The attached Team Participation Form must be completed and signed by each member of the team, and returned to your tutor before the end of tutorial class in Session 2.

Your team will need to begin work as soon as possible to complete each part of the assignment by the due date. You will need to quickly determine the tasks involved, the sequencing of these tasks, and assign a team member to be responsible for the completion of each task. In some cases the whole team may need to work on specific tasks.

Your team is to use the Case Study, supplied in a separate document, as the basis for your Analysis Phase deliverable. The deliverable for this assignment is the System Proposal for the new system discussed in the case study.

The format and content of the System Proposal is outlined in your text book and will be discussed over the ensuing weeks. In tutorials we will build an outline of the System Proposal that you will use in this assignment. This will involve

- elements of the planning document
- other sections to be discussed
- use case models
- complete set of process models
- data models

The System Proposal should be written in Word. Thus everything should be contained in one single document.

Your document should include a Front page with all, Names and ID numbers of all team members, and a table of contents. The body of the document will follow the System Proposal outline we develop in tutorials. The attached Assessment form should also be completed and appended to the System Proposal submission.
